Has a thorn
A hard stubborn thorn ever torn
Torn through your flesh to the bone
And after causing your death
After leaving you with no breath
Refuse to come out, even after your death!
Surprised?
Or you don’t know you are dead
Don’t worry,
Locate your thorn instead.
For I was sick in bed
But I didn’t know I was dead
Until they buried me -
With a thorn through my heart!
